Thumbs up 505..remind me of my versatile mini van... I do contract work eith it, took my family for vacation, do house shifting as my family grow bigger and bigger. Sold it for another newer model..
A well done sales pitch. It's amusing that salespeople can talk all day about computers, real estate, magnetic mattress pads, health insurance, helicopters, hedge funds, cars, water purifiers and more. Brief them in and give them the script, and off they go.
I have flown bell 47's all flavours even the J model,Bell 206a,206b2,b3 206L,212,412 EP,412 HP and other non Bell helicopters.From what I can actually see from this video with not many cowls removed,a 206 blade set,206 tail boom,206 mast and head,206 tail rotor system and 206 upper and lower fin.Yes bell have copied the Astar cabin design but at the expense of no baggage compartment from what I can see.The problem with commercial operations is Sod's law states that when you need to take baggage down route (happens a lot,)there is no way you can bump passengers or leave seats a hundred miles away.Yes the engine change from the faithfull but maintenance expensive Alison C20 is a good thing but only a 39 SHP increase?? The example of a cheaper quote than an Astar for a slinging job is too subjective as the Astar operator could have over quoted. All the rest about the "public safety" equipped version is totally irrelevant as what you fit in any airframe fits in most airframes and whatever you fit has a price tag over and above a standard airframe fit.It would be interesting to see how Bell increased the VNE on a existing antique rotor system? Getting back to the external load capabilities you can't compare with a AS350 B3.The stretcher fit has not changed much,I have used the old 206 in this mission fitted with the hinge out pillar and it was actually easier than the 505 in this video.Convince me that a very decent low time overhauled 206b3 at $0.5k is worth passing by for a $1.3 mil LUH?
Wow......So much anger......I thought 505 is a leap ahead.......but Astar kill........I think Autorotation capabilities of bell are enough for paying 1.3 mil
@@naughtyUphillboy there is no anger just facts and opinions,anger is a waste of energy. Bell does not have a premium on auto capabilities, and to a large degree that’s down to the driver, which Bell do you fly ?
120 instructing in BH-505 and I am comfortable opining that it is a PoS. Bell built it to a dollar threshold, NOT a performance target. And they built a PoS helicoopter. And you should really consider getting your money back from whatever school you attended. Your knowledge of basic punctuation undermines whatever points you attempt to articulate.
You place two larger looking blokes in the helicopter claiming how much room there is, yet you don't state their height or the dimensions of the cab. You just claim it can fit lots of feet. Two bladed rotor should be banned.

Bell's really outdone itself with the 505. I was a little on edge about the teetering semi-rigid rotor on this, but the Garmin 600H took care of that.
The 505 looks way cooler on those high skids! I love it!
I agree with you. I think that most helicopters look better on high skids.
About double the life compared to the low skids
Terry!!!! It is good to see you! It sure has been years since I have seen you! I hope you are doing well!!!
O Bell 505 é esplêndido, robusto e bonito. Parabéns Bell Helicopters.
I love this video!

You are already doing all of this filming, you have a bunch of awesome aircraft.
Bell should reboot Airwolf. Cheesy 80s plots and everything.
Fantástic 👍
Very good
Do you really have to move those weights back and forth from the tail for cg?
I wanna know what Terry considers a 'big truck'. And really nice video Bell team, you all are a pretty awesome manufacturer.
Terry was in charge of a state agency that has a fleet of 407’s and a state of the art 429.

Sweet, thank you.
pulling the rear seats out would require a change in base weight and balance in the jpurney log right?
What is the fuel consumption per hour on this beauty?
Is there an option for sliding rear doors because those doors are awful. Can't open them in flight and can't remove them either.
Doors are available with quick release hinges as options for quick removal.

Agreed...And the tiny baggage door is step down from an old JetBox. It still has nowhere near the utility of AS350... from any point of view..

Are you qualified on paragraphs, or is that a separate type rating?

@Bell, is the Bell 505 a 2 or 4 blade helicopter
If only they made a video huh?
ofcourse 2 😅
Bell Helicopters is like Porsche.... You look at it and you know what you are seeing....
Hot Ship!
ทำไมถึงคิดว่าเป็นตัวเลือกที่ดี เพราะเขามีรุ่นเริ่มต้นรุ่น r 22
@6:38 Chad & Tyrone walk in
Can we use it as private helicopter
Yes, listen to what he says at 9:37.
How many times does Terry, the law enforcement expert say ‘You bet!’ instead of ‘yes’?
บอกแล้วไม่ชัดจะเอามาเล่นเขาพร้อมทุ่มกระชากใจโปรแรง
Lane needs to lose a few pounds and work on those abs! 😉
One of the ugliest helicopters out there, but a gem of a machine - no doubt.
What is a beautiful helicopter ?

Sorry guys, but the 206 is a lot nicer looking. The 525 is gorgeous, but it has a really STUPID name.
